Rufus Wainwright - Miss Otis Regrets lyrics
[Rufus Wainwright - Miss Otis Regrets lyrics]
To lunch today, madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
She is sorry to be delayed
But last evening down at Lover's
Lane she strayed, madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
When she woke and found that her
Dream of love was gone, madam
She ran to the man who had
Lead her so far astray
And from underneath her velvet gown
She drew a gun and shot her lover down, Madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
When the mob came down and
Grabbed her from the jail
They tied her up on the
Tree down along the way
And the moment before she died
She lifted up her little head and cried
Madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
